    Bandaged Hands, 2

    She got off and continued down—stopping only when she heard Melvin’s voice echoing off the bare walls of Lillian’s hospital room. “She’ll be here soon,” she heard him say, causing her to stop in her tracks and listen intently to the rare exchange between her parents. “You have to promise me, Melvin, that you’ll take care of the baby…”

    “I will take care of the baby. There, are you happy? Now can you stop worrying yourself and get some rest? You’re only making it worse with all this worrying…”

    “I’ve made some mistakes, we both have, but…”

    Something made Melvin turn and look at the door, locking eyes with Bette, and hushing Lillian, “There, there, now, see, I told you Bette was coming—she’s right outside here.” Melvin leaned forward and kissed Lillian on the forehead before making his way toward the door; pushing Bette gently back into the hall. He whispered, “She’s been in and out of consciousness all morning—talking gibberish; the doctors assure me this normal for people when they’re in their final stages so, go easy. It’s just the disease talking.”

    “How dare he,” Bette whispered to herself, as she slowed the car over to the side and blankly stared at the front door. “How dare who,” Tina asked, squinting in Bette’s direction. “No, it’s—well, this is what I wanted to show you.” Bette got out of the car and waited for Tina to join her in the street. “Just how long have you been planning this?”

    Tina laughed and grabbed Bette’s hand as they made their way to the sidewalk. “Oh, gosh, not long, I guess I started thinking about it when you showed up at my father’s house.”

    “Not long, huh? Bette, this is adorable.”

    Tina looked back at her and she nodded, “Go ahead, it’s vacant. Wicked divorce, apparently.” She ran up the stair and onto the porch, looking through the windows as she made her way around to the side. “This is so perfect—are you sure we can afford this.”

    “The listing price is fair, and I’m sure we can talk them down even more,” Bette said, shrugging, “Depends on how bad they want out.” She unlocked the front door and pushing it open, said, “Come inside.”

    1. Whoa…heavy stuff. Bette’s Mom must have told her things when she was dying and now starts the guilt trip. Great chapter Girl, can’t wait for your next update.

    2. WOW, but did bette really know? she might have know about a baby, doesn’t mean she know it was shane…. anyway it’s time for bette to start yapping to tina and stop this hidding crap… :)PPS

    3. I hope this means that Bette will finally open up to Tina and share what is going on with her memories. I wonder if Bette remembered until now what happened with her Mom as she was dying. I look forward to the next chapter.

    4. So in reality Bette knew about Shane but did nothing, But how can a kid do anything about her mother’s condition. Bette was probably in teens or younger when Shane was conceived so there really was not much that Bette could have done.

    5. bette has to know that what happened with shane , as a baby, was not her fault… what was she supposed to do , go out and bring her home… it was all on melvin’s head… he was the one who didn’t want to help with the baby… so i hope tina convinces bette that none of this was her fault… PPS

    6. Boy this is really going to be a very heavy conversation when she talks to Tina and that is something she must do. And is Bette’s mother really deceased or did Melvin hide her in some clinic somewhere? I really need to go back and read again, I don’t remember. PPS
